Take the shackles oil*ot the drunkard and put them on the drink. Turn the bolts on your prison doors and let tlio drunaard out and put that which makes him drunk under lock ami key. Lock up liquor and let men go free and quit locking up drunkards and advocating liberty for liquor.? I Monroe Knquirer.
